The Magpul PMAG D-50 MP5 delivers reliable high-capacity feeding for H&K MP5 and HK94 platforms with its innovative 50-round drum design. This magazine eliminates the feeding issues common with traditional stick magazines at extended capacities while maintaining the compact profile essential for tactical applications.
What Makes This Different
Unlike conventional high-capacity magazines that suffer from spring fatigue and feeding malfunctions, the D-50 MP5 uses a constant-force spring system that maintains consistent tension throughout the entire capacity range. The drum configuration distributes cartridge weight evenly, reducing stress on the magazine catch and improving weapon balance. Independent testing shows 99.8% reliability through 10,000+ round cycles across multiple firearm platforms.
